I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 796 - 534 Performance_2
Xia Liang stood on the stage, looking out at the sea of people below, a mix of excitement and emotion welling up inside him.
"Xia Liang! Xia Liang!"
"The pride of Dragon Country's magic! The God of Magic, God Xia!"
"Your magic is the most spectacular! You are the strongest Magician!"
The sound of one hundred thousand people cheering in unison was thunderous. On stage, Xia Liang remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips. He bowed deeply to the audience, and with a flick of his right hand, a white handkerchief appeared in his grasp. With another flick, the white handkerchief instantly bloomed into a rainbow of colors. He then scrunched the multicolored handkerchief into a ball with both hands and blew a breath towards the gymnasium's ceiling.
Instantly, a Rainbow Bridge materialized high above, spanning the entire venue.
This feat of magic once again ignited the crowd's enthusiasm. Countless people erupted in cheers, while others scrambled to pull out their phones to take photos and record videos.
In the VIP seats before the stage, Yang Xiu, Liu Tongtong, Su Yi, and their friends were seated. Liu Tongtong and Su Yi had set up their phones on tripods, live streaming the entire event.
"Hahaha, the live viewing experience is just unbeatable! God Xia's magic still gets the blood pumping," Yang Xiu exclaimed in admiration. "The shock of this Rainbow Bridge is something you can only truly feel in person."
"You're right," Su Yi added with a smile for her live stream audience. "If Xia Liang hadn't given me a ticket, I probably wouldn't have been able to come and experience this electrifying atmosphere today."
The viewers watching Su Yi's stream were thrilled by Xia Liang's Rainbow Bridge magic, but their excitement was tinged with envy.
[Sigh, if I'd known it would be like this, I would've bought a ticket to see it live, even if it meant eating instant noodles for a year. Magic like this is only truly thrilling when you see it in person.]
[I regret it so much, too! I should've just paid whatever the scalpers were asking for a ticket. Watching it online just doesn't compare to being there.]
[God Xia is as amazing as ever. His magic is always so exciting.]
Meanwhile, on stage, amidst the roaring cheers, Xia Liang addressed the audience.
"Next, I'm going to perform a Coin Magic trick that many of you might be familiar with. I've performed this on Commercial Street before, and I believe it's become a favorite. Today, I'm bringing it back to perform for everyone once again."
"Now, I'd like to invite a volunteer from the audience to come up on stage as my assistant to help me complete this magic trick."
Immediately, a forest of hands shot up from the crowd below, everyone eager for the chance to be Xia Liang's assistant.
But Xia Liang waved his hands with a smile.
"Please, everyone, calm down. The volunteer for this trick has already been selected. It is Liu Tongtong, the winner of the Anchor PK competition jointly held by this Magic Feast and the Small Broken Station! Please, come on stage."
Down in the audience, Liu Tongtong stood up excitedly. After bowing to the audience around her, she quickly made her way to the stage.
When the Small Broken Station held that PK event, the news that the champion would get to perform a magic trick on stage with Xia Liang sent everyone into a frenzy. It was only thanks to her massive fan base and the support of numerous influential figures that Liu Tongtong managed to emerge victorious from the grueling battle, and even that required a considerable financial investment. That PK competition was one for the Small Broken Station's history books. The platform had hosted several PK contests before, like Anime Night, where winners could go on stage to give an acceptance speech, but none had ever been as fiercely competitive as this one. Countless Anchors and their backing guilds had pulled out all the stops, but in the end, Liu Tongtong took the crown.
Now, surrounded by cheers and envious gazes, Liu Tongtong walked onto the stage. Although she had worked with Xia Liang several times before, this was her first time acting as his assistant to perform a magic trick with him. Standing on stage, Liu Tongtong could barely contain her excitement. Her fans in the live stream chat felt a share of her glory.
Under the gentle spotlight, Liu Tongtong was having the highlight of her life. The happiness she felt was no less than walking the red carpet—in fact, it was even more exciting. After all, no red carpet event, whether domestic or international, from the Pegasus Awards to the Oscars, commanded as much attention as this Magic Feast. It was safe to say that by standing here, Liu Tongtong had cemented her place as a top-tier internet celebrity in the country.
"Did you bring any coins?" Xia Liang asked with a smile as he approached her.
"No," Liu Tongtong replied, shaking her head.
"Impossible," Xia Liang said with a faint smile. "You clearly have at least a thousand coins on you. Why are you lying?"
"Ah? I really don't! Look!" Liu Tongtong said, startled. To prove her point, she frantically turned her pockets inside out for the audience to see.
The spotlight shone on her, making her look like a princess from a fairy tale. She wore a stunning white dress, her long, slender legs clad in black stockings, and her feet adorned with red high heels, looking vibrant and beautiful. Anxious to prove her point, she showed everyone her empty pockets, stopping just short of lifting her skirt to demonstrate she was truly coin-free. The scene drew a wave of hearty laughter from the audience.
Xia Liang was also amused by her adorable antics. He smiled and nodded.
"Alright, alright, I get it. You've proven yourself. You indeed don't have any coins on you."
Liu Tongtong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then she heard Xia Liang continue with a chuckle.
"However, just because you aren't aware of the coins doesn't mean they aren't on you. They're all hidden, which is why you can't see them. Only I, the Magician, can find them. Are you willing to let me?"
Taken aback, Liu Tongtong subconsciously nodded. "Sure."
"Good," Xia Liang nodded and smiled. "Then watch closely."
He moved in front of her and extended his right hand. At that exact moment, the stage lights perfectly illuminated his hand. He lightly ran his fingers through Liu Tongtong's hair, and when he pulled his hand back, a coin was nestled in his palm.
Xia Liang held it up for her to see. "This is the first one."
Liu Tongtong quickly asked, "Are there more?"
"I don't know how many there are yet," Xia Liang replied with a smile. "I'll have to search thoroughly."
Then, using both hands, Xia Liang began to continuously pull one coin after another from Liu Tongtong's hair, much to her amazement. The audience below was equally astounded by the display. Countless spectators began to wonder just how many coins Xia Liang could produce from Liu Tongtong.
One, five, ten, thirty...
With every coin Xia Liang produced, the crowd roared. Drawn completely into his magic, they began to count along.
Backstage, the top international magicians watching the performance were thoroughly impressed by Xia Liang's Coin Magic.
"This kid's got some skills. Even I can't do this Coin Magic."
"How does he hide so many coins on him? He's already pulled out over a hundred, and he's still going! Unbelievable!"
"This is a true master..."
...
Meanwhile, on stage, Xia Liang had already produced more than a hundred coins from Liu Tongtong. She was completely baffled; it was all simply too mysterious.
